    We literally have a global rise in violent fascism and multiple ongoing genocides, and TikTok is the worst thing you can think of?

      Social media in general is likely contributing to the rise of violent facism. Anything that can reverse that trend is good IMO.

      Hey, did you know that Facebook is partially* responsible for a more recent genocide? So, considering TikTok’s ties to the Chinese government, which is also known to commit genocides, I’m gonna go ahead and say this is probably a good thing.

      Edit: changed because Facebook just incited it, people are responsible for their own actions.
